Summaries

Some months before the outbreak of the Greek Civil War three outlaws struggle for survival in the mountains.

After spending three nightmarish years in a concentration camp, Petros Kazakos, a WWII survivor, returns to his hometown to avenge his betrayal. As the murderer flees the police, seeking refuge in the rugged and desolate mountains, he crosses paths with two other fugitives: the hardened revolutionary and escaped convict, Kosmas, and the young farmer with the haunting past, Argiris. As a result, their only hope for survival and a fresh start is to cross over the vast sea where freedom lies; however, the lack of money will soon force the dangerous outlaws to stain their hands with blood. Now, only death can purge their souls; but, is all hope lost?—Nick Riganas
